In Japan, there is currently little progress in academic research on the corporate valuation of unlisted companies. The Corporate Evaluation Research Institute has a wealth of data on M&A transactions and buying and selling prices of small and medium-sized enterprises, so it utilizes this data to conduct empirical research on the corporate value and M&A transactions of small and medium-sized enterprises. We aim to make academic contributions in this field. This endowed course will conduct research and education related to corporate evaluation. In our research, we will conduct 1. data analysis and empirical research on the valuation of small and medium-sized unlisted companies, and 2. development of a corporate value evaluation model that incorporates ESG performance (ESGP). A corporate evaluation model that incorporates ESGP is a theme that the Sunagawa Laboratory at the Kyoto University Graduate School of Management has been working on. Through joint research, we plan to develop an academic and practical ESG corporate value evaluation model and work to disseminate it.
In terms of education, we hold lectures that incorporate practical experience and research results at the Kyoto University Graduate School of Business Administration and the Faculty of Economics, as well as seminars for working adults. Through these activities, we will contribute to improving the corporate value of Japanese companies by disseminating knowledge on corporate value evaluation, M&A, business succession of small and medium-sized companies, exit strategies of startups, etc.

Comment from Kyoko Yonezawa, President and CEO of Corporate Evaluation Research Institute, Inc.
M&A among medium-sized and small-to-medium-sized companies is still in its infancy, and the current situation is that M&A parties have no choice but to conduct M&A in the face of a lack of information. Regarding medium-sized and small-to-medium-sized company M&A, there is a need to further advance academic research, systematize it, and increase transparency.
Through this initiative, the Corporate Evaluation Research Institute hopes to clarify the reality of M&A transaction price formation and contribute to the realization of a society where managers can engage in M&A with peace of mind.
In addition, by clarifying how ESG initiatives at mid-sized companies and small and medium-sized enterprises affect corporate value improvement, M&A transactions, and business succession, we will contribute to the spread of the integration of ESG factors into management. .
